Y is for A Year Series

We're just about finished up with our alphabet series!  I had a hard time finding a great series for the letter y but finally settled on the "A Year"  series.

My boys have enjoyed these non-fiction books and with so many subjects to choose from there is something for everyone.

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing.

Favorite holiday traditions?  We don't have a whole lot of traditions left!  My favorite used to be baking/ crafting/ making gingerbread houses with the boys but they don't like to do that much anymore.  We still decorate our tree as a family and watch Christmas Vacation.  We still gift them an ornament each year to signify something about that year.   The ornament we bought for Alec the year he learned to read 2. What holidays do you celebrate? Just Christmas  3. How early do you shop?  My shopping is 90% done. I typically start around November 1st but I don't have a set date or time in mind.   4. When do you decorate? We'll decorate the whole house the day after Thanksgiving.  5. Do you host any holiday festivities?  On alternate years we host a Christmas brunch; thi
